Political Commentator
This was uniquely the worst week in presidential transition history. It couldn't have gone worse for Donald Trump. Donald Trump, who boasts about the stock market this. Well, the stock market tanked this past week as the markets are completely rattled by Donald Trump's completely insane cabinet picks. You don't get much more insane than the cabinet picks psychotic, dangerous, unqualified, potentially treasonous and traitorous picks. I mean, you've got just the kind of clumsy and weird and even outside of his cabinet, like meet your new White House communications director, everybody. Steve Chung right there. But you move into the actual cabinet, you've got RFK Jr to lead health and Human Services, someone who says we shouldn't do research into infectious disease, someone who said that Covid was like manufactured from 5G radio signals in order to overtake world markets with like Bitcoin. I can't even follow this guy's dangerous, unhinged conspiracies. Who wants to ban fluoride from water, who wants to basically fire everybody at hhs. Great pick there, Donald. The most dangerous person. Oh, then this guy right here, Peter Hegseth, the weekend Fox and Friends host Peter Hexip. And I don't want to hear, oh, well, Biden's hired people who were less qualified. No, no, it's just not true. This is the most unqualified human being to ever set foot near the Defense Department, yet alone become the Secretary of Defense. What a middle finger to the hardworking people who are going to give this guy the nuclear codes right there. Also, it was a revealed that he has sexual assault allegations against them stemming back from 2017. He denies cheated on his first wife with the second wife. Cheated on his second wife with his third wife who he had a baby with while he was married. The third wife's a fox host. Family values, eh? The party of family values, eh? Then Matt Gaetz as Attorney General who is under investigation for being a pedo. Yeah, just being a pedo. The Attorney general. Someone who's never really practiced law in his entire career. Great pick there, Donald. Matt Gaetz says ag someone uniquely unqualified and who has the moral char of Jeffrey Epstein. Oh, wait a minute, Donald. You were flying around in Epstein's jet during the campaign, the Lolita Express or whatever Epstein's plane was. Epstein tapes came out and your name was on it. But corporate media didn't want to talk about it. But I digress. We go from Matt Gates, Peter Hegseth. Oh, how about Tulsi Gabbard to be the Director of National Intelligence. Yes. Someone who many believe to be directly compromised by Russia, who literally parrots word for word Russian propaganda. Someone who when the Syrian dictator unleashed chemical weapons against his own people, she went rogue. Or perhaps she went Tulsi and she went to Syria to hang out with him and give him a pat on the back and then tell America, he's our guy, we like chemical weapons against our own people. Oh, and then how about Mike Huckabee for oh, didn't you sign peace plaques in Dearborn, Michigan to assure the Arab community that you got their back back even though you had Muslim bans in 2016. But they seem to believe you because the Palestinian and Arab communities actually voted for you over Vice President Kamala Harris. But now this week, they were out there saying, biden, please help. Donald Trump's doing the genocide. He wants to lead the genocide. In fact, Mike Huckabee, who Donald Trump picked to be the ambassador to Israel, doesn't even believe that the word Palestine is a word. Won't actually call the West Bank. The west bank, he calls it Judea and Sumera and says that the west bank is just a fictional concept. And the term Palestine, he says isn't real. Not for a two state solution. They want to demolish it, genocide it. The things that they actually said during the campaign while Vice President Kamala Harris said we need to have a ceasefire and a two state solution. But now the Arab communities, I'm not sure if they want to admit it or they're out there still yelling at Biden for some reason. But okay, that happened this week as well with Huckabee. Oh, and by the way, you created a fake agency this week. What a mature thing to do. There's now the Doji agency, which according to Twitter is an official government agency. Why? Because I guess you just say so. And America's Cacastocracy, which means government of the stupid. You could just say idiocy. We just go, okay, I guess there's a government agency with Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy who are fake cabinet levels. Let's just play dress up and just have fake cabinet leaders right now. And again, I wonder why the markets are crashing. I wonder why now since you've taken office. We went from record stock markets. We haven't taken office yet. While you're still, while you're still in transition. Now we have a 75% chance of a recession, which I think is a conservative estimate. It's probably more than that. But wait a minute. If we go back to 2019, there was a manufacturing recession back in 2019. I know people want to be like, oh, but Donald, poor Donald, he was doing so good. And then Covid just happened and it wasn't like Donald Trump said that it wasn't real and that was a hoax and like a miracle, it was all going to go away. And he handled it so irresponsibly that it caused way more devastation than it ever had to had he actually been a freaking leader back in 2019. Because it's called COVID 19 and actually sent our medical personnel to deal with the situation and be transparent with the American people. But why do any of that? Anyway, I digress. A Doge agency where Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy say they're going to basically cut $3 trillion. So say bye bye Social Security. Say bye bye to your Medicare. Say bye bye to your health care. Well, RFK Jr. Of course, was saying bye bye to all of that. Anyway, just see the comparison right here. A retired four star general who Magaz will say that's a DEI hire. At Lloyd Austin, the Defense Secretary imminently qualified, working for President Biden. Just say you're racist. D.E.I. hired this. You picked a Fox and Friends weekend host. What in the world are we talking about? Wait, did you hear that? Did you hear that? Cricket? Cricket. Did you hear that? Cricket? Oh, that is Donald Trump's Homeland Security director, Secretary of Homeland Security Christy Noem, who killed her dog Cricket and her goats. And her horses and God knows what else. She's now our Homeland Security. She was doing the YMCA dance, though, with Donald. They love the YMCA dance. She was doing that and other dance moves for 45 minutes or so when she would host town halls. And of course, corporate media wasn't saying that's the most bizarre thing ever. No, whatever. Let's talk about international affairs. Donald Trump's worst week ever. Donald Trump said, I strong. Remember what his promise, that's already broken. He was saying in 24 hours of him being elected, he said that he would call up Vladimir Putin, he would call up Zelensky and he would end the war in Ukraine. Russia's unlawful invasion in Ukraine. But you didn't do that. You put Tulsi Gabbard there. Maybe that's part of your overall plan too, with Ukraine, but you keep it. Then Donald Trump leaks to the Washington Post. Remember this from this week? This is all this week. I feel like I'm talking about months right now. I'm talking about this freaking week. He leaks to the Washington Post that he spoke to Putin and he very powerfully told Putin, de escalate, de escalate. So what does Vladimir Putin say? Does he go, yep, we had that conversation. We are interested in productive relations? No, Vladimir Putin said that any insinuation that there was a phone call between me and Donald Trump is, quote, pure fiction. In other words, Vladimir Putin alpha ing, dominating, putting Donald Trump in his little beta place. And that's what America is right now. To Russia, a laughing stock. The rest of the world's horrified, but to Russia and our adversaries, they're laughing at us. On Russia state tv this week, again, all this week, stuff I'm talking about again, feels like a month. This week, Russia TV started posting nudes of Melania and laughing at her and saying, your body, your choice. Your body, your choice. Right, Melania? That's what they were saying on Russian propaganda TV over and over again. As the chilly days of fall roll in and the holiday rush begins, it's easy to forget about taking care of yourself.

So in summary, that was Donald Trump's first week. Not even as the president as part of the transition. You have Republicans even taking to FOX and saying this is disastrous. Matt Gates, Peter Hegseth, Tulsi Gabbard, who are the what are you doing? What are you doing? Well, we will see now if the Senate actually wants to have his advice and consent function its constitutional duty. The MAGA candidate, by the way, Rick Scott, lost in the first round of majority leader votes. Now it's a McConnell protege in Senator John Thune from South Dakota. He's the one who will be leading, is the House, is the Senate majority leader now. So now what? Now we go into hearings with Gates and RFK Jr. And Tulsi Gabbard and we have these public hearings. Well, methinks that what's gonna happen. Let me just give you my prediction right now. Donald Trump, even if the Senate says they' not agreeing to recess appointments, Donald Trump's going to invoke an archaic provision of the Constitution and he's going to say all of my cabinets, they're acting cabinet members. I'm not going through the Senate. They're my people. There will be a showdown. There will be litigation before the Supreme Court. All the while, Donald Trump's doing bloody mass deportations. Remember, Stephen Miller was also given a role in immigration. Also all the Latinos for Trump now are googling wait, mass deportations? Is that real? Am I going to have to, am I going to get rounded up? Workplace raids. Workplace raids is what Trump is talking about. He brought in Tom Holman to be the border czar. We'll keep you posted, but you don't really get more worse of a week than that. The question is, are people waking up? There's some signs of that, but knowledge is powerful.
